      A twisty turny G 3 trail well worth doing as an extension off the Tourist Trap

      Rode Ferret today (Wed, 16/01/19) and there’s a fallen tree across the trail about 200 metres onto the trail from the intersection w/Tourist Trap. Take care, as it suddenly appears around a hairpin turn.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
